School Tours at Caherconnell Stone Fort

The O\’Dabhoireann family of the Burren is steeped in educational history and we are carrying on this proud tradition in producing schools packs for both the primary and secondary levels of Irish education.

Our primary schools pack has been prepared by Colm Davoren a primary teacher and is based on the 1999 curriculum. The pack includes pre visit and post visit lessons a word search and useful websites which work in tandem with a power-point presentation.

Strands - strand units and objectives are provided. A visit to Caherconnell stone fort will cover a 4-week scheme of work for your class. The pack is designed for classes: 3rd to 6th.

Our secondary schools pack has been prepared by Liam Ashe, a former history and geography teacher, and an author of a number of textbooks for use in both the junior and senior cycle. Using his vast experience and knowledge of both the junior and leaving certificate courses Liam has produced a excellent pack designed to enable the students to understand the unique topographical and archaeological history of the Burren. A list of useful websites is also included.

We look forward to seeing you soon at Caherconnell Stone Fort.
